How to Count Bananas.

New York Mail and Express.
An old man, paper of pins and a
wagon load of bananas, engaged the at
tention of reporter of the Mail and
Express this morning on South street,
and he stopped and watched the old
man as he silently stuck pin after pin
into the ripe red fruit and then drew
them out again and made notes on a
pod.
''What are you doing, testing the
fruit?" asked the reporter.
mo. l am counting the bananas,
that's ALL" returned the old man.
but why not hold them up and count
them?"
'"Cause. S'pose you try it yourself
The reporter then picked UP bunch
of bright red bananas that the old man
had already counted, and, running it
over, said eXultingly, 142.
''Try again." said the banana dealer,
never looking up from his work.
The reporter did so, and this time
counted 10. Again he tried and made
the number 153.
Now" SAID the old man, take hold of
this paper; there are 200 pins in it. Put
pin in each banana on the bunch"
The work was done. s.Well," said the
old man, chow many pins have you got
left in the paper? Thirty-three? Then
there are 167 bananas on that bunch.
See? That's the way we dealers count.

MS brother and sister, but he desired
them to know that each of their male
children would receive $4,000 at his
death, but the girl children would re-
ceiye nothing.
William was wrathy when he read
this. The fact that his handsome daugh-
ter was to be left by her eccentric uncle
Just because she was girlwas enough
TO make the father of any number of
daughters and no SONS mad.
But his wife planned a scheme by
which her daughter was not to be out
done by her Sister-in-law's son. Ac-
cordingly the Lansings moved from
Connecticut to Maryland. When they
left Yankeedom they had daughter.
Mihen thsy crossed the Maryland line
That daughter had been transformed
INTO modest. but handsome, dark-eyed
boy OF seventeen. The sister had never
. seen the child, or indeed had she had
i any communication with the brother.
She was, therefore, easily fooled. The
kmsings purchased farm near the
Fenwicks.
,1. William wrote to his brother Morton
THAT he had boy and their sister also
i had son. In due time letter was re-
, ceied from Brother Morton stating
: that his London agent was coming to
America to see the boys who were to
share in his will. This announcement
was thunderbolt in the Lansing home.
Fearing the discovery Eva refused to
play the boy any longer, and her father
was forced to write his brother that his
son had just died.
r.. While she was wearing the breaches
she and her cousin Harry became great
friends, and when she put ON skirts
again their mutual admiration increased.

is better satisfied, now that his daughter
will share she $4,000 by marrying the
cousin.

The Fate of a Negro Murderer
The Daily Record Of
Crimes.

CHICAGO, Sept. 15.-It did not APP
pear when the anarchists emerged
from their cells to take exercise this
morning that the fatal news of yester-
day had made any impression on them.
Spies came out with cigar in his
mouth, nodded to his fellows, and then
going to the sink washed two or three
pieces Of tinware with hot water. Lingg
climbed into the barber chair and was
shaved. The others retired behind a
projecting corner of the cell house and
talked among themselves until their
friends began to come in. The repre-
sentative German paper of this city,
the Stats Zeitung, which has hitherto
been in favor OF the execution of the
anarchists. comes out this morning in
an editorial somewhat supporting a
communication of sentence. The main
paragraph reads as follows:
1T would be more clever if the defense. in
stead of seeking through legal bubbles to
disturb and excite public opinion, took adj
vantage of the present prevailing milder sem
ument of the public in order to present pc
ution to the governor, not for free pardon
but tor communication of the death sentence
to penal seryitude. 1t might be possible tina t
such an attempt would meet with success.
But it would have to be understood that in
demned men should be very we'll behaved
and very tranquil Should they, however,
continue acting as they have done at their
meetings during the last few months they
would surely bring their comrades to the gal
